Description
NOTE! Offical wallpaper found here [link]I wasn't planning on posting this at all, I just wanted a new wallpaper that looked something like this so I finished it and said "What the hell"
Stock photos used for the base of it, then some more stock photos used for the people and the birds, then the planets and stars I made.
I made this cause I can't wait to go up north this year, its going to be sweet.
I hope I can take cool pictures like this when I am up there.
Enjoy

a true ...the only minus is the birds - they're too apparent clones of each other, and seem way too big.

Well the quality of the daily deviations has almost reached the bottom. Amateur piecies full of clishes are cheered and really good and original art is remain hiden. Sometime the admins should take care of that issue...

Truly spectacular. I've been meaning to do a switch of WPs for the longest time now, and this may be the one to switch with. Truly outstanding job.!

Well done on the Daily deviation - I absolutely love this, reminds me so much of Anne McCaffrey's Dragon's of Pern series. Well done!

This is simply stunning. I haven't seen a lot of work of this sort that I can use the same adjective for, to be honest.
It must have been hard work, putting all of this together, but it seems that your hard work has paid off. It is quite dramatic, but still has a soft, almost romantic feel to it. Imagine walking down a beach during sunset to have this sight greet you... It is almost such a pity that Earth only has one moon, and not three.

Excellent picture. I like the small details in the bottom part of the picture. The people/the trees in the distance/the birds all create a very nice effect and give an idea of the scale of the picture. The placement of the birds (or the position they are in relation to each other) is interesting, and looks almost like a triangle.
The colours in the picture are very beautiful. The yellow/pink of the sunset combine with the glowing blue of the other objects in the sky superbly. The black at the bottom of the picture only serves to emphasise the beauty of the colours in the top half of the picture.
The stars have been blended extremely well into the rest of the picture, and the transition between the colours of the sunset and the starry sky creates another very nice effect. The objects/planets/moons in the sky also like great. I like how the large planet on the right is clearly transparent, stopping it from being too dominant in the picture.
"From Paradise" is an interesting title. It almost seems like the birds and the people are walking away "from the paradise", or the sunset. Overall, this is an excellent picture. Also, congratulations on the Daily Deviation.

Awsome. Putting a spacescape in a sky gives it a lot more scale. It looks great. Very peaceful as well. Simply perfect.

How are they transparent? if you are referring to the blue sky blending into the planets, that's the way it should be... the sky is closer than the planets.
